Message: [QUOTE="auror, post: 4299138, member: 1329"] The conundrum is that the optimal use of deep, non-rotation bench spots is to develop players for the future. But now players transfer when they don't play. So we have to rethink the paradigm. Social media stars. NIL negotiators. Tutors. Best friends/Entourage members of stars. Drivers. Just give the walk-ons scholarships. Escorts. Members of the football team. Jokes aside, probably has to be athletic but unskilled 3* types who know they need to develop and won't freak out when they don't play their first year or more. Whaley types. Toolsy guys who started playing late. 4* guys, even fringe top 100/125 guys, are too easy to poach now. It's just not even worth recruiting them if they're not going to play 15 min right away, unless they have a REALLY strong bond with the area/school/coach (for example I don't know him but from what I read Clingan might be this type).
